Wizarding World Harry Potter - A Forbidden Forest Experience (UK)

Hey folks!

I was sharing this on the daily thread, but thought it might be appreciated by a wider audience and I didn’t want to clog up the daily thread with even more photos :laughing:

This event is described on their website as follows…

A nighttime woodland trail experience filled with magical creatures and wizarding wonders from the Harry Potter™ and Fantastic Beasts™ films. Explore after dark the sounds, lights, and special effects that bring the magic of the Wizarding World to life. Guests will also be able to enjoy a wide range of delicious food and drinks at the village!

Set in a beautiful woodland, this nighttime trail experience has been created by award-winning theatrical designers and experiential creators.

We went last year and absolutely loved it. We were so excited to come back this year and were lucky to only get caught in the rain briefly. We had a great time.

Here are my photos…






















There are still loads of things that I didn’t take pics of. It’s a great event!

Here are a couple of the light effects that can be shown to best effect with short videos…

They also have this same experience about an hour outside of NYC starting next weekend. It’s near where DD26 lives so we may try to go if I can get tickets. I’d have to travel to NY but was planning a fall visit anyway!

That’s great that it’s making its way over to you guys :+1:t2::laughing:

Now if we can just get another Hogwarts and the rest of the Wizarding World to the UK, that would be great :partying_face::rofl:
